Hi, please can you identify my bonsai for me? We think it could possibly be either a Chinese Privet or a Ficus? But the leaves dont seem to be as long as these? I need to know for sure so that I can look after it accordingly. Your help would be much appreciated!!! Thanks
The leaves are opposite, which counts out Ficus and Ulmus. Privet (Ligustrum) does have opposite leaves, but they're a different shape, with a pointed apex, and also it doesn't have downy stems like your plant does. So it isn't any of those. Sorry, don't know what it is, though!
